Redwood Frames

been gum-mainly because the gum people established their product firmly as the picture framing material. "Redwood is far superior, and I would use it for rnost of my orders if I could get it." He feels many other picture framers share his opinion.

As the mills in the redwood region increasingly utilize what has been waste material, Mr. Dimitroff will soon be able to secure the type of redwood needed for picture frames and other molding. Right now most of his wood comes from Indiana and Georgia.

Santa Clara, Calif.-Donald E. Ackermann, a member of the sales force of Owens-Corning Fiberglas Corporation in the Pacific Coast Division for more than two years, has been promoted to manager of the company's Los Angeles branch. His appointment was announced here at headquarters of Owens-Corning's Pacific Coast Division by \A/. C. Winterhalter, vice president and sales manager.

"I've been framed-by redwood," says Stephen Dimitroff, Mill Valley's skilled artisan whose picture framing shop attracts customers from Marin county and much more distant points

Dimitroff thinks no wood is so versatile as redwood in his business. The knotty r,r'ood or sapwood'which is often thrown away at the mills is especially attractive in frames.

According to Dimitroff, the chief picture frame stock has

Whcr Is A Boy?

(The following delightful essay was written by Beck" New England Life Insurance Company, arld printed from "The Mitre.")

Between the innocence of babyhood and the dignity of manhood, we find a delightful "riatur" called a Uoy. ioys come in assorted sizes, weights, and colbrs, but all boys have tfie same creed: To enjoy every second of every day and to protest with noise (their only weapon) when their last minute is finished and the adult males pack them off to bed at night.

Boys are found ever5i'rnrhere-on top of, underneath, inside of, climbing on, swinging from, running around, or jumping to. Mothers love them, little girls hate them, older sisters and brothers tolerate them, adults ignore them, and heaven protects them. A boy is Truth with dirt on its face, Feauty with a cut on its finger, Wisdom with bubble gum in its hair, and the Hope of the futurewith a frog in its pocket.

When you are busy, a boy is an inconsiderate, bothersome, intruding jangle of noise. When you want him to make a good impression, his brain turns to jelly or el'se he becomes a savage,.sadistic, jungle creature bent on destroying the world and himself with it. A boy is a composite-he has the appetite of a horse, the digestion of a sword swallower, the energy of a ppcket-size atomic bomb, the curiosity of a cat, the lungs of i dictator, the imagina_ tion of a Paul Bunyon, the shyness of a violet, the audacity of a steel trap, the enthusiasm of a firecracker, and when he makes something'he has five thumbs on each hand.

He likes ice cream, knives, saws, Christmas, comic books, the boy across the street, woods, water (in its natural habitat), large animals, Dad, trains, Saturday morning, and fire engines., He is not much for Sunday school, company, schoglS, books without pictures, music lessons, neckties, barbers, girls, overcoats, adults, or bedtime. Nobody else is so early to rise or so late to supper. Nobody'else gets so much fun out of trees, dogs, and breezes. Nobody else can crbm into one pocket a rusty knife, a half-eaten apple, three feet of string, an empty Bull Durham sack, t*o gr,*_ drops, six cents, a sling shot, a chunk of some unknown substance, and a supersonic code ring with a secret com_ partment.

Logiccrl?

The old employe had gotten into the habit of arriving at the office late nearly every morning, and the boss decided he would put'a stop to it. So he said to him:

"Bob, you are late again. You should have been here an hour ago."

"I know," said thq genial old timer, ..but an hour ago I wouldn't have been good to you. I was asl,eep."

Forget It

If you see a tall fellow ahead of the crowd, A leader of men, marching fearless and proud, And you Lrrow of a tale whose mere telling aloud Would cause his proud head to in anguish be bowed, It's a pretty good plan to forget it.

If you know of a skeleton hidden away

In a chest and guarded and kept from the day

In the dark, and whose showing, whose sudden display Would cause grief and sorrow and lifelong dismay, ft's a pr;s11y good plan to forget it.

If you know of a thing that will darken the joy

Of a man or a woman, a girl or a boy That will wipe out a smile, or the least way annoy A fellow or cause any gladness to cloy, It's a pretty good plan t9 forget it.

-Jud Mortimer Lewis.

Allen is reThis Such

To save something each month develops self-control. power frees one from fear and gives abiding courage. moral strength is of much greater value than the mere possession of the money that has been saved.-Samuel W. Reyburn.

The Doctor's Dicrgnoses

A boy is a magical creature-.-you can lock him out of your workshop, but you can't lock him out of your heart. You can get him out of your study, but you can,t get hirn out of your mind. Might as well give up-he is your captor, your jailerr /our boss, and your master-a freckle_faced. 'pint-size, cat-chasing, bundle of noise. But when you come home at night with only the shattered pieces of your hopes and dreams, he can mend them like new with the two magic words-"Ili Dad !"

We went to a picnic the other day and ate a lot of dill pickles and ice cream. The next day the doctor told us we were suffering from an acute attack of indiscretion.
